COFFEE OR TEA POT.

' SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 272,802, datedFebruary 20, 1883.

Application filed January 11, 1888. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JULES VACHERESSE, acitizen of the United States, residing at East New York, in'the countyof Kings and State of New York, have invented new and usefulLnprovemcntsin Goifee or Tea Pots, of which the following is aspecification.

This invention relates to an improved coffee or tea pot or boiler, the('OIlStIllUliOll of which is pointed out in the following specificationand illustratedinthe accompanying drawing,which is avertical centralsection. k

In this draning, the letter A designates a ho ler, provided with awater-supply pipe, B, a S ifety-valve, C, and a war er-discharge faucet,D. The boiler has a circular opening in the top, provided with athreaded flange, E, to which is connected a water bath, I containing thereceptacle or percolator G, the latter being suspended in the waterbath, and having connected with it a delivery-faucet, H. From theinterior and lower part of the boilerA extends a pipe, I, upward andinto the percolator at or near the top thereof, being connected theretoby a nut, a, the inner surface of which forms the seat for a valve, b,formed at the inner end of a pipe, 0, which is connected to the innerwall of the receptacle or percolator' by a hinge-joint, d. The inner endof the pipe 0 is perforated and surrounded by a spreader, e. In theinterior of the receptacle or percolator isplriced the'sievef, whichcontainsthe ground cott'ee or other substance to be acted on. When thewater in the boiler is heated to the boiling-point it is driven upthrough the pipe I and caused to discharge through the perforations inthe pipe 0, so that it. is thrown against the spreader e and distributeduniformly over the ground coliee or other material on the sieve f. Theextract collects in the bottom part of the receptacle or percolator. Bythe water bath F the extract is prevented from being heated to theboiling-point. When the top of the receptacle or percolatoris takenoti', the pipe 0 can be swung up,and when the not a is unscrewed thepipe I can be forced back so as to clear the receptacleor percolator andallow ot'removing the same, together with the water bath F, from theboiler. Thereadymade extract is drawn from the receptacle or percolatorthrough the delivery-faucet H, and while in the forlneritis kepthotforalong time by the water bath F.

What I claim as new, anddesire tosecure by Letters Patent, is-

l. The combination, substantially as hereinbet'ore described, of theboiler A, the receptacle or percolator G, the water bath F, surroundingthe percolator, and the pipe 1, extending from the interior of theboiler into the receptacle or percolator, said pipe projecting down intothe boiler, and havingits lower end terminated adjacent to the bottomthereof for conveying heated water from the boiler and distributing itover the coffee supported in the receiver or percolator.

2. The combination, substantially ashereinbefore descibed, of the boilerA, the percolator G, the pipe I, rising from the boiler and passingintothe upperpart of the percolator, the nut a for securing" the upperend'of said pipe in position, the hinged pipe 0, and the spreader e.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal in thepresence of two subscribing witnesses.
